My Dear Angie,
Happy birthday! Although I posted on your blog post yesterday, I wanted to take the time to thank you, thank you so much, for all you have done for me.
I came back to YLF at a time when I was really ill. My mind had fractured into pieces, due to many factors and side effects from medication. While I was still not at my best, I decided to go to that YLF NY meetup and the rest is history. I was pretty nervous, anxious about meeting you all, but I went. I was amazed by your kind spirit, generosity, honesty, transparency and empathy. I walked out of that meeting inspired and for the first time in months, with something to look forward to. I think meeting you and so many members of this community, at such a dire time, when I had pretty much isolated myself from everyone, changed me and changed my life for the better.
Thank you so much! I hope you had an extraordinary birthday.
